Sit back and relax. I usually leave mine together for at least 24 hours after a copulation is observed, sometimes longer. Then I separate them and either move the male on to another female or let him rest, depending on where he is the the breeding cycle for the week. If you only have one pair, it is not unusual to put them back together for several days each week.

Good luck and let us know what happens.
